About this wine
Gallery is Bedell Cellars' small-batch white blend of Chardonnay and Viognier, made only in select vintages (the exact ratio — around 85% Chardonnay / 15% Viognier in recent releases — varies by year). Fermented from sustainably farmed, estate-grown fruit using indigenous yeasts, it offers a medium-plus-bodied palate with layers of apple, white peach, jasmine, and a creamy, textured finish balanced by fresh acidity.
An approachable, food-friendly white that showcases Long Island's maritime-influenced style.
Sommelier's Note
"One of the more ambitious white blends on the North Fork — texture-driven and worth seeking out in years it's released."
Food Pairings
Pairs well with roasted fish, grilled chicken, and creamy pasta dishes; its texture also stands up to buttery lobster.
When to drink it
Elegant dinner parties, weekend celebrations, or as a gift for white wine enthusiasts.
